Striving for Antiracism:

My Imperfect Journey

Striving for Antiracism: My Imperfect Journey is a candid, courageous memoir and learning companion by Casey Tonnelly, a white, non-binary, neurodiverse facilitator and coach. Through powerful storytelling and lived experience, Casey traces their own transformation from someone who believed they were “one of the good ones” to a person actively engaged in the lifelong work of unlearning racism and striving toward antiracism. This book offers an honest account of resistance, reckoning, and revelation—inviting readers to see how deeply racial narratives and societal socialization shape our identities and assumptions. Casey’s vulnerability and humor make complex topics like white privilege, defensiveness, and cultural humility accessible, offering an imperfect but deeply human case study of what it means to commit to change. This book is not a manual—it’s an invitation to join the journey.
